Just things in general
I’ve been using, off and on, WordPress to maintain a blog of what is going on. My advanced skill (joking) has gotten me to the point of being able to add entries and tag them. I stumble through the setup but really relied upon the Cpanel to install it on my site and then the […]
I recently just took a trip with my family and the experience of going through the airport was amusing. I have two kids and one stroller which translates to a lot of baby necessities. I have small aluminum canisters that hold about 10 ounces milk and use them to keep the milk cold for up […]
I recently joined the O’Reilly Blogger Review program and this is the first book I chose to review. The entire “Missing Manual” series is dedicated to providing a solid users manual for a given product. This one is dedicated for the iPad and it does a very good job at providing a broad overview of […]
A Facebook user, who is in the public media, just recently succumbed to peer pressure and created a Twitter account. This person is new to it and will have to figure whether it works for them or not.

Looking back over the past 10+ years it’s amazing how much of a coffee based country the US has turned out to be. There are those that will say we are not a coffee country but more of a “fast food – triple foamy, extra sweet” country and I can’t say that I disagree with […]

Today I was going through the process of updating my password on one of my accounts but received an error because the new password failed to meet the minimum requirements. I knew this because I was presented with a single dialog box that the following paragraph. If you can read and understand this then you […]
I really didn’t understand all of the changes made to eBays feedback system until I recently sold a bunch of stuff. I found out the hard way that there really is no longer a method to provide visible feedback stating that a Buyer is a dead beat or unreasonable. Here are two examples where that […]
Let me preface this by stating prior to our current vehicles I have always driven smaller/compact cars. VW Bug, VW Golf, Acura Integra, Pontiac LeMans (no, not the cool muscle car but the cheap re-branded Opel Kadet). My wife had a fender bender and dropped our 06 Durango off for repairs. Enterprise, granted they were […]
